What were you wrong about?


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

Going back in history (or recently) what were you completely wrong about? Could be a draft pick you wanted that turned out to be a bum, could be a coach you wanted that turned out to be a scrub, could be anything, Panther related that you were completely wrong on.

Ex: "I thought Jimmy Clausen would be a good NFL QB"

Ex: "I thought Jimmy Clausen would at least be a serviceable NFL QB"

EX " I thought there was no way Jimmy Clausen would turn out to be a complete and utter bum"

etc etc..make it fun...

I was wrong about Atiyya Ellison (I'm sure that's not spelled correctly, but he didn't put forth the effort on the field, and isn't worth my effort to Google him) and Eric Shelton

I was wrong about John Fox being able to get us back to the Super Bowl. I honestly thought he could.

After 2008 though, I knew his ship had sailed.

God I was convinced that we were going to the dance after that win against NO that handed us the NFC South.

"Alright, we're getting Arizona at home! Just need the Eagles to upset the Giants and it's a home NFCCG baby. Bank on it!" :party:

*Sits through 60 horrid minutes in BoA the next week*

I thought that there was no way that we would keep Hurney after the cap problems forcing us to sign Jake to an extension. Add to that the Brown and AE picks, the long string of horrible 2nd round players, and a 2 win season. But what do you know, he's still here, and still making bad choices.

Thought the Clausen pick was the right one then, and still do now.

    • I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.
    • Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.
    • Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
